Surely Nintendo are going to do a tie-in game, right? Odyssey is nearly 5 years old at this point, and will be about 5 1/2 years old by the time the movie comes out.
Agree that this is a bit of fuss about nothing. It doesn't seem to be endorsing Alex Jones' ridiculous frogs comment, it's satirising it. Saying that it's not a game I'd buy, and slightly curious that it would be allowed on the eShop description.
@Broforce I don't understand that logic, but regardless, Stardew Valley is a total classic game which the dev has put far more love and time into than a lot of larger Indie developers put into their games. If you like the genre, believe the hype!
Been following this one for years via the dev Picogram's twitter feed. It was a pleasant surprise to see that it's coming to Switch. Will definitely support her and buy this day one.
Should there be a spoilers warning at the top of this article? I don't particularly care, but I'm sure plenty of AC fans would rather wait for the updates to roll out when Nintendo wants them to.
@MeatSauce I actually felt the same way about the game for the first few hours, and then about 8 or 9 hours in it totally clicked and I ended up playing it for about 100 hours! Definitely worth giving it another go.
@the_beaver Maybe i'll give it another go. Did you find the movement to be a little sluggish/underwhelming? Maybe it just seemed a bit slow having been playing a lot of Celeste and Hollow Knight.
I downloaded the demo the other night and played it for about an hour. I really didn't get why NL gave it 9/10. Admittedly, I didn't play it for long, but it just felt very clunky and dull, especially when compared to other great platformers on the Switch.

Each Switch user getting their own island would be nice.

Re: Video: Dead Cells' The Bad Seed DLC Gets Glorious Animated Launch Trailer
@Aaron09 I IMPLORE you to try Hollow Knight! Shovel Knight and Dead Cells are also very good.
Re: Rumour: Wonderful 101 On Switch Teased (Again) By PlatinumGames
@JamesR That's what I thought! Why do they need a Kickstarter to release it?
